General
1. Operating Logic
In the normal state, the output logic shall be energized and any input
becoming open circuit shall result in de-energized the associated output
circuit
2 Alarm Signal
The input for alarm shall move to open circuit position for an alarm or
abnormal condition.
2. Trip Signal
the volt free contacts digital output shall be closed (with relay coilenergized)
during normal operation and open during safety trip or fail-safe position.
Signal to field devices from analog and discrete output modules shall be
configurable to either hold last good value or change to a selectable value,
upon either failure of field device or controller module or loss of
communication between the output processor and the controller module.
All digital input shall be of a fail safe design. The output to solenoid valve and
pump shall be of a fail safe design
4. Control Valve
Control valve fail action shall be identified on a case by case basis but,
generally, reflux valves off-gas valves and product gas valves, cooling water
valve shall fail open, product valves, steam generator fuel supply valves, and
level control valves shall fail closed.
(TO BE DISCUSSED WITH PROCESS ENGINEER)
5. Transmitter
The system (SIS) shall be provided with internal software to accomplish the
transmitter line monitoring upon failure.
